Easier method of peeling a banana


Apologies if already mentioned


I have never, in all my life, drunk or sober, had trouble peeling a banana from the stem -_-.

Kinda makes you wonder who was the person who had SO much trouble peeling a banana that he traveled to Africa to watch monkeys do it.


This was my response exactly. How can you possibly fail to open a banana from the stem? It's just so easy...

More useful corollary: drink alcohol after not having anything to eat and you're more likely to get drunk.

Isn't the the point of alcohol?

This is false, from my own experience. It's going to depend on other factors and I wouldn't really view it as far-reaching enough to even use as a generalization.

Always attempt to sleep in 90 minute intervals (6hours, 7.5hours, 9hours, etc), you'll be able to wake up much easier.

If when you wake up in the morning you eat a banana or something before anything else it is a lot easier to get the day started.

Fixed it for you! Now it's a bit more relevant.

-Less is more (works for girls, teaching, leadership, and just about everything else)
-Like in Starcraft 2, success in life requires good macro before shortcuts and neat tricks or micro
-Don't be afraid to retreat; don't be afraid to back down or cut your losses. "It is better to retreat a yard than advance an inch."
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who say there are two kinds of people in the world and people who know the first group of people are full of shit.

I wonder sometimes why people brush their teeth before they have their breakfast like one minute after. Makes no sense.

But then you eat and your breath smells bad again anyway :S

I do it like the last minute before I leave the house in the morning.

I thought everyone does this, but I've had people be like "wtf?"

When I eat, I always have a knife in one hand and a fork in the other. So if I'm eating something that's in small pieces like corn or rice, you push the food onto the fork with the knife and eat it.

I don't understand how people can stand to eat breakfast right after waking up without brushing their teeth first. I mean your mouth is full of bacteria and you have morning breath and everything.

Dude I had this argument with my girlfriend so many times... Her reason is that you end up eating the bacteria in your mouth if you don't brush before eating. Worst reason ever; I'd rather eat the harmless bacteria in my mouth than have my breakfast taste weird and minty.

If you have bad acne try sleeping with a clean pillow case or a clean towel every night. I tried so many facial cleansers and nothing seemed to work, but within a month of using a clean pillow case my face started clearing up.

Its probably a well known trick but for those who are unsavvy with computers, Windows key + D brings you back to the desktop.

Particularly useful if you have lots of homework open and you want to minimize everything quickly and play starcraft.

Isn't your mouth always full of bacteria, as with most parts of your body?


Anyway.
